A Raccoon family Pulled one of my hens out of the pen, through 1.5 in. by 2 inch square fencing. It had to have reached in and pulled it out piece by piece. Last night my son stayed up all night and shot one coon and then realized it was many of them. Gross! Some of you are going to hate me for this, but I skinned it out. I figured since we have to kill them, even though I hate it. I don't know if farming is worth having to do this. I also have no idea where my primitive nature came from to get…

Distractions Are Everywhere
Driving is a skill that requires your full attention to safely control your vehicle and respond to events happening on the roads around you. Driving involves constant and complex coordination between your mind and body. Events or things that prevent you from operating your car safely are distractions. There are three types of distractions and they are anything that takes your:
eyes off the road (visual).
mind off the road (cognitive).
hands off the steering…

Hi everyone! I am finally settling in and have internet, however I can only use either my phone or internet at the moment. I love it here but the deer have already eaten my flowers. I have missed being in contact with you all so much. I will be online more often now and will try very hard to blog often.
Hugs to you all....
Colleen

Furbit, (bit by a Fur Bug)
First let me tell you about her. She is about 4 years old.
When she 'wasn't in heat ~ She was preggers' She's had 5 litters and she's small (under all that fur), So with every birthing, it was very painful for her.
The last time she was due, I set up a box in my closet. She never wanted anything to do with it until the day she delivered.
It was 3AM when she jumped on my chest, looked me straight in the Eye and informed me "Its Time! Get Up and Help Me"
I crawled ou…

I had been thinking about training Rani to be an alternate for Mali as a mobility service dog, so since she was a young pup I had take extra time to socialize her more than most people would socialize their dog. She is not afraid of loud noises or strange sounds, large trucks, motorcycles whizzing close by, large crowds of people, horns blaring, the rattling of dollies or any other strange sound most dogs to not hear on a daily basis.
Rani is sweet and soft natured when she meets someone new sh…

Twelve days have passed since the storm rumbled through and Ginger entered our lives soaked to the skin, wounded, and bleeding. The vet did the blood work making sure the kitten did not have feline leukemia or aids so it could stay with us and not put our other elderly kitties in jeopardy. Ginger snuggled in quite nicely in the cat carrier in my mediation room. We put a baby gat on the door so the other cats could jump in if they wanted to visit but the kitten could not get out, thus keeping it…

The move has been crazy and we are here doing the last of it. I absolutely positively love it there though. I have 21 chicks of various sizes. My little Grimm and soon I will have Sugar Toes "Sugar".
She is our newest member. Moms French bulldog "Abigail" just delivered 7 perfect little French Bull Dog puppies. They are gorgeous!!!! They eat like little pigs and are so fat and healthy. It is amazing because Abigail "The Mom" cares for them really well but does not stay in the box with them all…

Last week, after a terrible thunderstorm ended we heard the sounds of a distressed cry. It was nearly midnight and Steve and I had not yet gone to bed as we were enjoying the cool calm the storm had brought when it left. The sounds was nearly lost in the sounds of the frogs melody down by the creek but it was there, high pitched and frantic. I heard it first and asked Steve to shush so I could be sure. Then he heard it too. It was the sound of a very young kitten.
Steve searched the kitchen for…

Normally the following post might not be typical for this GROUP however let me hasten to add that the economy is affecting PETS & their owners. One story is of a young fellow who lost his job and his apartment and had to part with his beloved dog. Animal shelters are noticing an increase of pets being dropped off because folks can no longer care for their pets because of finances, a lack thereof. Skypilot
Good Morning
